Surely Hiezenburg's (sp?) uncertainty principle (which is what I think you're talking about) relies upon observing the position and velcoity of, say, a particle by normal physical methods. Maybe you can know the position without any uncertainty at all if you observe by 'other' methods. :)
Just a thought,

(Personally I'm not really bothered about exactly where and how fast a thing is travelling - maybe I should make these things in life more important to me. :) )
